Wisconsin is watching light snow spread across southeastern counties this morning, dusting cars and softening rooftops as temperatures hover near 30°. Snowflakes are already reducing visibility at times, and untreated roads could turn slick before the evening drive.
According to the National Weather Service in Milwaukee, 1 to 2 inches of accumulating snow are expected through late afternoon, with a narrow band possibly producing brief snowfall rates near 1 inch per hour. The exact placement of that heavier band remains uncertain, but any burst could quickly coat I-94, I-43, and Highway 41.
Near Lake Michigan, additional lake effect snow may develop later today and continue into early Sunday. Shoreline communities from Milwaukee to Kenosha could see light extra accumulations. Plan extra time if traveling and keep headlights on during heavier bursts.
Temperatures fall to around 19° tonight. That drop raises concern for flash freezing on bridges and overpasses as wet pavement refreezes. Sunday turns partly sunny but colder, with highs near 28° and lingering flurries possible early.
March begins tomorrow with sunshine returning Monday and a high near 37°. Clouds increase Monday night with another 50% chance of snow. A rain-snow mix looks likely Tuesday before a gradual midweek warmup pushes highs into the 40s.
The broader 6–10 day outlook hints at moderating temperatures across Wisconsin, signaling a slow transition toward Spring Warmth by late next week.
